R.I.P. Andy Rooney

I am sitting here watching CBS Morning News... (7am EST)

I haven't found a story online yet, but they just announced it on CBS.

Andy Rooney passed away after complications from minor surgery.

I watch 60 Minutes just about every Sunday night.

I looked forward to his segment at the end of the show.

Just saw this story on Yahoo, and it saddens me. RIP, Andy. 92 years is a good, long life, but you will be missed.

Edited to add the link to the story online:

"Do you ever notice how people spend all their lives doing the one thing they love, the one thing they are good at, for years and years and years, and once they finally hang up doing what they did all their lives for good, they suddenly drop dead?"

Just doing my best Andy Rooney impersonation. razz grandpa tv It's almost eerie that he died just a month after he did his last commentary for 60 Minutes. He'll be sorely missed.

He was fine untill he went into the hospital for a "minor" surgery. Never recovered.

He was one of the few actual leftists in the media--why he was made to talk mostly about paper clips.

He was a good guy.

All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!
